So I have an announcement. I sent an email to my work saying that I wanted to be able to focus on my work on taking advancing the federated social web to the next level. Read: better security / abuse resistance, richer interactions, virtual worlds.

How will I be funded to do this? I don't know. I do know that the state of the political world scares me enough that I feel I have to do this. If you want to support me: https://www.patreon.com/cwebber

Hi! You may most likely know me as co-editor of ActivityPub, the decentralized social network message which is more-than-likely how you're actually receiving this message! https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/

Sabrina by Nick Drnaso was terrifying and timely graphic novel. Its power comes from its understated visuals contrasted with its uncomfortably deep subject matter. In many ways it's the inversion of the rubber-necking of modern "true crime" story obsessions. What's on the other side?
